Notes
- The butter wants to be very soft. Your finger should push through it easily. If you have cold butter, cut it into chunks, microwave it for 5-7 seconds, and stir it together.
- A large room-temperature egg.
- The measurements given in the recipe are for fine salt. If you are using kosher salt, add a pinch extra.
- Baking Soda is also called Bi-carb, Sodium Bicarbonate, and Bicarbonate of Soda. Don't get confused with baking powder.
- You can buy freeze-dried raspberries at larger grocery stores, specialist cake stores, or online.
